SOME STUDIES ON FILM AND ARCHITECTURE..

I am really interested in the south bank brutalist architecture because it reminds me the set of movies such as Metropolis, Blade Runner, The Fountainhead... And I really like the squared and geometrical shapes the brutalist buildings present in addition the fact that in this kind of architecture the functions and plants of the buildings are usually exposed through the harsh design of the facade.
I regard this type of architecture as very dramatic and scenic and I am interested in the investigation and development in my own work of a certain architectural-visual language proper of specific kind of cinema and movies.
In this moment I am studying a book called “Film and Architecture” (a publication of Architectural design, 1994) in order to understand in further details the relationship and the boundaries between cinema and architecture.
